do you need to have a partner for this or will teams be randomly assigned?

@Screaming:

If the Allied Powers control the Philippines for the entire game, when does The United States get their FOW research roll?

i don’t think they’d get a FoW in that case they’d just get an extra point at the end of the game if phillipines had never been taken

going egypt first as axis can be fun, i usually do a variation of this if italy still has the majority of their fleet on their first turn.  With the current meta though usually most of the italian fleet plus most of the italian ground forces in africa are gone by the time italy goes.    A decent strat to have in mind as a reactive strategy based on how the first turn goes…  i’ve had italian money up to like 45/turn or more once when the allies left them alone on turn one, i gave italy egypt and the middle east and they were scary lol.  Granted this was against inexperienced allied players so not the best test of the strat :P

@Young:

@Cow:

One of these days I will make it to an event.

Our team is now targeting October 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th 2019 at a larger Legion hall on the same street.

nice i’ll make sure to save a week of vacation for that  ;)

i’m down in calgary but i’d definitely be interested.

sounds fun, will you be playing OOB or using the YG Victory tokens & timed tournament rules?

@Baron:

I hope you will give us feedback of people about victory tokens.
IMO, it is a great thing to actually get so many people playing along and agreeing to follow what was basically a houserule. And you bring a deck to enhanced the experience.
Nice job.
Mission accomplish, hope you will get a few cooldown moments to make post-mortems and enjoy what you have created and manage to settle.

yeah i’m interested to see people’s opinions of these as well, i’ve been holding off buying them as a few of my regular players in my own games aren’t fans of house rules.  Anything I can use to sell them on the idea if they worked well and it sounds like they did  ;)

i got jealous that i couldn’t go to YG’s in toronto so i pulled some strings to get a table at a con in my city haha.

wish i could have budgeted a trip to Toronto in, glad your guys’ event went well!!  Any chance of this being an annual thing or is this a one-off?    I was with you guys in spirit, i ran a global A&A table at a convention here in Calgary on Saturday ;)  It was surprising how many people walked up to the table and said “i didnt even know you could do that with europe and pacific”.

hopefully this tourney becomes an annual thing so i can budget for a trip sometime!

I wasn’t able to budget a trip to Toronto for YG’s G40 tournament however I was able to secure a slot to run global 1940 at fallcon in Calgary this weekend!  For anyone in or around the area that is interested feel free to come out and join in!
